City Recreation Department Trip To Biblical Museums Cancelled After Objections

Christian Post reports that the Charleston, Illinois parks and recreation department has cancelled a planned town trip to southern Ohio and northern Kentucky that included visits to the Answers in Genesis Creation Museum and Ark Encounter. Freedom From Religion Foundation had complained to the city (full text of letter) that promotion of visits to these museums violates the Establishment Clause because it endorses the religious mission of museum founder Ken Ham.
